Lest We forget, Fukushima Anniversary.

        And still the corporate Mafia and their minders the government, try to sell us nuclear power as a safe and economical power source, this in spite of Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima, The cost and the ongoing costs of those three incidents could probably solve the world's energy problems by safe renewable means. 
       On 11 March 2011, the strongest earthquake in Japan's history caused a giant tsunami that killed more than 18,000 people along the country's north-east coast. It also triggered a triple meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant that will take four decades to clean up at a cost of tens of billions of dollars. As Japan prepares to mark the fourth anniversary of the 3/11 disaster, the Guardian talks to key figures from the most critical days of the Fukushima crisis and to some of the tens of thousands forced to evacuate their irradiated communities and who continue to live in nuclear limbo

  1. On March 11 - 2004 about 200 people were killed in an attack in Madrid. Most were workers. Rest in peace and be always remembered.

    1. under the present system of injustice there are so many incidences of horror and brutality, it is difficult to remember them all, but we should certainly try. We owe it those who have suffered.
